-
From the E-Cooling section of the action bar,
click Compact PCB Component
.
- Optional:
Enter a descriptive
Name.
-
From the 3D area, select a
part to be the compact PCB.
-
Select the axis system and the axis that is perpendicular to the plane of the compact
PCB.
Option | Description |
---|
Global |
Aligns the local feature triad with the global coordinate system. |
Local |
Aligns the local feature triad with a selected axis system in the
model. |
The axis system selection affects the computation of the orthotropic conductivity of
the compact PCB, which the app
decomposes into values in the in-plane and perpendicular directions.
-
In the table, enter values for the Thickness of each layer and
the Percent to define the volume of signal traces for each layer of
the compact PCB.

Click Search
to
search the Material Palette for a substrate material, which is the material that holds the signal traces and
circuit components together.
You must apply a solid material.

the PCB components.
You must apply a solid material.
